The penny drops

Re: my last post where I mentioned picking up a book by Diane Gabaldon...Diane Gabaldon...oh, yeah. She's the one who wrote a rant against fanfiction that set fandom on its ear about a month ago. Sorry, my right brain and my left brain have not been in synch for awhile. I forbore to comment at that time 1) so many others were doing so well, 2) I wasn't familiar with her work at all and 3) my own personal life at the moment was incredibly something that Elinor Dashwood is still not talking about. I did read a fair amount of the commentary, though. (Fandom Wank writeup here).

Mmmm...so I'm now not approaching the book as quite the tabula rasa that I was before.

*goes back to read, this time a tad more...doubtfully*
